Nylon Polyester Spandex Tri-Blend Cooling Ice-Feel Single Jersey Knit combines 55% nylon / 35% polyester / 10% spandex with a Single Jersey Knit construction. It is aimed at Hoodies and Joggers that require warmth without bulk and a stable brushed surface, and the reason is straightforward: a cost-balanced hand with better abrasion life than straight nylon, so Cooling Ice-Feel.

Why this construction works
The construction does the work before any chemistry is added. a plain single-bed knit means the lightest way to get coverage, with good stretch and a clean surface for printing, and that structure is what allows the fabric to gives an instant cool touch and spreads heat away from the body under the conditions Hoodies and Joggers actually face.

Recommended applications
The first choice for Hoodies and Joggers, where warmth without bulk and a stable brushed surface is the requirement that decides the fabric. It also converts cleanly into coordinated pieces in the same programme, since the hand and the shade run together.

Frequently asked questions
Can we get recycled content with this construction? In most cases yes. GRS certified recycled nylon or polyester can replace the virgin yarn with full chain of custody documents, usually with no visible change in hand or performance.
Can the weight and width be changed? Yes. Most programmes run between 140 and 340 GSM, and width can be set between 150 and 180 cm to match your marker. Changing weight changes cover and stretch, so we re-test before confirming.
